Bulls Aim Higher, But Overheating Emerges

The daily BNB price chart shows strong bullish momentum but also early signs of potential exhaustion. The Bollinger Bands are widening, with price action currently near the upper band, a zone often linked to short-term overbought conditions.

The RSI is suggesting that the top crypto token is overbought and may face a temporary pullback toward $1,250 support. A break below this level may trigger a correction to the $1,100–$1,150 range, where strong buying interest could emerge.

Meanwhile, the MACD remains in a bullish crossover, with widening histogram bars indicating sustained buying pressure. If momentum continues, BNB could retest $1,350 and potentially rally to the $1,500.
